Winston is an English Bulldog and typical for his breed. He was born 11/23/15 and lived with his family until taken in by Home At Last Sanctuary. His family could not afford rent where they were living and their new place does not allow dogs. Winston went to live with family only to find out their landlord would not allow Winston to live there. Winston was a loved and cherished companion and his behavior is reflective of the care he has received in his short life. This was a very difficult decision for the giving him up was the last resort. Home At Last Sanctuary has only had possession of Winston since noon 8/27/17. We will provide additional information about his behavior and personality shortly. English Bulldogs are docile, but capable and protective, fearless and athletic, fierce-looking, determined and courageous, bold and friendly around their family and friends, but fearless adversaries to anyone who threatens their masters or property. This breed likes to chew and should be supplied with plenty of toys and bones. Nylabones and rubber Kong toys are highly recommended. Rawhides, soft rubber and stuffed toys are unsafe, for they are easily shredded or swallowed whole. English Bulldogs are so eager to please that they may overexert themselves in an effort to do whatever is asked of them. An owner who displays a natural authority toward the dog, socialization and obedience training are important. It is best to channel high energy individuals to some type of work and exercise. The objective in training this dog is to achieve pack leader status. It is a natural instinct for a dog to have an order in its pack. When we humans live with dogs, we become their pack. The entire pack cooperates under a single leader. Lines are clearly defined and rules are set. Because a dog communicates his displeasure with growling and eventually biting, all other humans MUST be higher up in the order than the dog. The humans must be the ones making the decisions, not the dogs. That is the only way your relationship with your dog can be a complete success. This breed tends to drool and slobber.
